CNC Centerless Grinding Machine from Japan
A numerically controlled machine tool designed for centerless grinding of cylindrical metal parts, removing material using abrasive wheels to achieve precise diameters and surface finishes. It falls under HTS 8460.24.00 as a grinding machine for metal finishing, numerically controlled, distinct from gear-specific machines. Ideal for high-volume production of shafts and bars.
